3D connexion space mouse vs Onshape issues.

Good Morning,
Anyone else having issues with a 3D connexion space mouse since the latest updates (both Onshape and Microsoft)?
Rotation fails when creating mates in the assembly………updated the driver to fix but no dice!
Any (sensible) suggestions. 🤐

This issue/bug was introduced in the last 3D Connexion driver update, and I have not found a fix for it. I have often considered rolling back to the previous driver(much more stable) but haven't done so yet.

Thanks for the response wayne_saunder,
That makes sense….. I'm guessing i'll need to roll back 2 updates on the driver as the problem first appeared for me, from recent updates.
I'll let you know the result……. when I can get my IT to try it.
I use a Mac. Most of the issues started with Mac's latest 3D connection driver, but I can't say for Windows. There are always issues with the drivers, just sometimes much more disruptive than others. If more people complained about the onshape/3D connection issues, maybe they would do something (although their support is terrible). I think all problems are on the 3D connection side. Okay, to post here, but it usually makes no sense to send onshape support a ticket because there is nothing they can do.
